 Filmmaker Dai Sil Kim-Gibson explores the aftermath of the 1992 LA Civil Unrest in her film WET SAND. Her groundbreaking 1993 documentary SA-I-GU stands as one of the crucial texts to offer a Korean American perspective on the events surrounding the Los Angeles riots – an invaluable discussion tool for promoting better understanding of the socio-political factors that played into one of the grimmest moments in United States race relations. With WET SAND, Kim-Gibson revisits Los Angeles to learn what changes have occurred since then, only to discover that living conditions have deteriorated and that few remedies have been administered to the communities most stricken. Through interviews with a multi-ethnic set of first-hand witnesses, this essential follow-up probes deeper into the racial and economic issues that not only shaped the climate of 1992 Los Angeles, but continue to affect all Americans today.

 AXEL PHILIPPS investigates modes of visual protest. In this video, he describes his research of defacements of election posters on the streets. In order to determine the characteristics of these defacements, his research team used so-called ‘street reading’. They focused on defaced election posters on the main streets of Leipzig, Germany. Comparing their material to theoretical concepts drawn from the literature on the topic, they discovered that, mostly, the defacements are not very subtle but purely destructive – in contrast to the examples usually discussed in scholarly writing. Their most important finding was that these defacements often function as a channel for people’s sentiments that are not evident in the media or political discourse Show more Show less

 The research presented in this video analyzes the relationship between law and morality, and asks what role morality plays in social interactions. Using empirical findings from social psychology, behavioral law and economics, it is deduced what people generally perceive as just or fair. The findings show that moral rules enable cooperation and how moral intuitions impact rule following behavior. As STEFAN MAGEN explains, the findings suggest the need for the law to create shared standards to make moral intuitions viable for society. Show more Show less

 Fiscal rules constrain governments from running deficits or from accumulating too much debt. In this video, ECKHARD JANEBA considers how we can assess and understand compliance with fiscal rules and, therefore, their broader utility. Focusing on the German “Debt Break” fiscal rule that requires state governments to run balanced budgets from 2020 onwards, Janeba conducted two waves of surveys with relevant policymakers. Providing particular insight into prospects for compliance with this fiscal rule, the work also identifies important attitudinal differences between different groups of policymakers. With fiscal rules becoming more common worldwide, the research helps us to understand how their design might be optimized. Show more Show less

 The topic of virtual violence in video games has been highly contested in Germany and other countries, especially in the context of school shootings. In contrast to these public debates, CHRISTOPH BAREITHER is interested in investigating the emotional experiences players have while enacting virtual violence. As he explains in this video, he used an ethnographic approach known as participant observation – in this case playing over a thousand hours of video games – in combination with interviews and the study of magazine articles in order to establish the emotional practices of players. He found that these emotional experiences are indeed very heterogeneous and very complex. This finding offers a new insight that could contribute to future public and political debates on the topic.
